I have been staying at number 5 for over 10 years now, with friends, my mum, my husband & now with our children. We love the attention to detail & that Jane & Mary continue to add new aspects and update things. Nothing is too much trouble & the breakfast is truly incredible, not to mention the fascinating breakfast room.... More

My girlfriend and I stayed in room five last weekend for one night. We booked through an online portal, received a confirmation then very short afterwards received a personal message on my mobile from the proprietor to confirmed the booking. We arrived to a very warm welcome, checked into a bright, impeccably clean, stylish and well equipped room which settled... More

Our 2nd visit to No 5 so we knew to expect clean rooms & fantastic breakfasts! Not disappointed & had a chance to sample the smoked Whitby kipper option. Yum, perfectly cooked with granary bread & butter on the side. Not forgetting Mary's delicious homemade marmalade. Room 2 this time,light, lovely & spacious with lots of special,thoughtful No 5 touches.... More

Friendly B&B,full of interesting things and well laid out. Great room (no 8) en-suite, lacked for nothing although a little noisy, but earplugs provided to block out the dawn chorus! Amazing hospitality, fantastic breakfast and a real attention to detail. Highly recommend.

Just spent a night at Number Five. Spotlessly clean and well appointed facilities. Excellent cooked breakfast. Jane and Mary were brilliant and treated us exceptionally well. We were made to feel truly welcome. This Bed and Breakfast is hard to better. Excellent in every way. Looking forward to me next visit already!

We stayed at this B&B last weekend, having not used a B&B before we were apprehensive of what to expect. All I can say is that i will certainly be using them again on my returns to Whitby, Extremely friendly, very clean and tidy, and also a really quirky place. Also I have to mention that the breakfast are really... More

Just returned from No 5. Stayed just for the 1 Night but wish it had been for longer. Had room on top floor which was spotless. Bed very comfortable. Plenty of tea, coffee etc. breakfast great. Will def return.

I'm so sorry for the late review! I stayed here in October 2012 for the goth weekend and had a wonderful time. Mary and Jane made me feel very welcome and were friendly and chatty. I felt almost like I had come to stay with friends. Thank you Mary and Jane! The location is great, it's just a short two... More
